First Aid and Emergency Response
US & Canada General Construction
Why it matters
In the first minutes of an emergency, the plan in your head is the only one that matters.
Key points
- Know the site address - saying it correctly saves response minutes.
- Know who the first aiders are and where the kit and AED are.
- Report ALL injuries, however small - infections and claims start with unreported cuts.
- Emergency muster point: know it, use it, stay until counted.
- Do not move a seriously injured worker unless there is immediate danger.
